Considering that the soldiers were indeed very tired, Lu Chang divided the soldiers into two groups that day, one group went to rest and sleep, and one group was responsible for standing guard, guarding prisoners, etc., and waited until five hours later, and then changed shifts. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoTwo days passed, and the 20,000-strong army finally regained its former appearance, and all of them were alive and well.

In addition to Pingxing County, there are other eighteen counties in Chu County, although they are not rich, but they are also cities, and the forces of the officials and families in the city are intricate; When they heard that the imperial army had captured Chu County, many people wanted to come to Pingxing and surrender, some gave gifts, and some went to the door.

However, there are exceptions, some people look far-reaching, they know that although this Chu County has been temporarily conquered by the imperial army, but after all, there are not many soldiers and horses, and the imperial capital is far away, you must know that the current Qingliang, Huai County, and even the entire northern Xinjiang are in the hands of the anti-thieves, this district and a county, how can they hold it, but they are afraid that they will be attacked back by the anti-thieves in the future, if they go to give gifts at this time, Wei Ning will be angry when he comes back in the future?

Thinking far-reachingly, they inevitably hesitated, so they knew that it had been several days at this time, and no one had moved, only a few people went towards Pingxing, hoping to climb the big tree of the imperial court.

However, just as they were hesitating, news came from the northernmost part of Chu County, and it was shocking news! There were tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the imperial court entering Chu County and heading to Pingxing County.

Obviously, this time the imperial army wants to completely occupy this county, maybe more than that, it is very likely to fight outside!

Seeing the determination of the imperial court, those family members who were still hesitating, and the previous county orders, all brought enough gifts and headed for Pingxing, and the speed was extremely fast, faster than the advance of Ling Feng's army. They were going to get there before Ling Feng and show their sincerity.

And for these, Ling Feng didn't know anything, he was slowly marching with 60,000 troops, along the official road, with great fanfare and banners flying all over the sky, advancing towards Pingxing!

Although there are only 60,000 people, but the pomp he put on is not small, beating gongs and drums along the way, stopping to rest when encountering the city, and then showing the military might and starting again, his purpose is very simple, that is, to let all the people and families in Chu County know that the imperial army is coming!

Here, in the future, it will still be the world of the imperial army! This is much stronger than posting a notice to the people, telling everyone with actions that the court is not afraid of thieves!

The effect was very obvious, before Ling Feng could show his military might, just after getting the news, they had already gone towards Pingxing, and these news only reached Ling Feng's ears the next day.

........

Mayday, mild weather.

After nearly half a month of marching, Ling Feng's army of 60,000 finally came to the realm of Pingxing, before this Lu Chang had already received the news, and also received Ling Feng's instructions, all the officials of Pingxing, including Lu Chang, led an army of 5,000 to greet him, and greeted him until ten miles away!

Such a big pomp and circumstance can be said to be a rare domestic spectacle, many people went to wait and see, and for a while, the news of Ling Feng's arrival in Chu County quickly spread to the whole county, and even Wei Ning and Pang Yi also knew the news.

At this time, Sun Liang and Sun Tong, who were sent out by Wei Ning, had already occupied Wushan, and set up camp to block all the intersections, and then Ling Feng didn't have time to care about these now, anyway, he didn't think about attacking Wei Ning immediately, so it didn't matter if Wushan was in his hands or not.

The scene returns to the welcoming scene.

Ling Feng was dressed in black clothes and black armor, with a red cloak on his coat, a bronze ancient sword hanging from his waist, and a silver spear in his hand.

Zhang Wu followed, and on the right was Lu Wen, and the army of 60,000 followed closely, stretching for ten miles, with great momentum.

Not long after, Ling Feng saw Lu Chang, who was waiting in front with a group of officials.

"See General."

....

Looking at the many officials in front of him, Ling Feng said, "Get up, don't be polite." ”

Immediately, everyone followed him and headed towards Pingxing County.

Everything is normal, all expected and under control.

Ling Feng was slightly disappointed, how much he hoped that a thief who didn't have long eyes could jump out, or an assassin, so that he could stand up and let the officials of Chu County see what kind of means this new imperial court general had.

It's a pity that until entering Pingxing City, no assassin appeared, and he came to his destination smoothly.

Entering the city, Ling Feng instructed Lu Wen to take the army to the military camp and station, and then he took Zhang Wu and Lu Chang to the county guard.

Chu County is 'worthy of' being a small county, and this county guard is not comparable to the government of a large county at all, if it is not a little more lenient, it makes people think that this is just a small county office.

Entering the lobby of the mansion, Ling Feng looked at it casually, and then came to the seat and sat down.

Zhang Wu was also very casual, and he didn't have so much etiquette, after finding a more comfortable enemy, he also sat down, this time he couldn't let him lead troops to attack this county, he was very uncomfortable, and there was no smile on his face at this time.

But Lu Chang was the opposite of him, he was now smiling on his face, looked at Ling Feng and said, "General, take this Chu County, we will send it." ”

"Oh... What's wrong? ”

Ling Feng said casually.

Lu Chang said: "The last general has counted the results of the battle these days, our army has 100,000 loads of grain and grass, 6,000 war horses in northern Xinjiang, 35,000 prisoners of Wei Ning's army, and countless instruments of various kinds, countless, isn't it sent." ”

Zhang Wu rolled his eyes and said secretly: "This credit should have been mine, I'm so angry." ”

However, his expression, Ling Feng and the others had no time to take care of it.

Hearing these numbers, Ling Feng also laughed and said, "Well, it's sent; With these, we will have the capital to expand the army next. ”

"What? Expansion? Lu Chang was stunned for a moment and said, "General, are you saying that we are going to expand the army now?" ”

Ling Feng said: "Of course, do you think that with just a few tens of thousands of people now, we can defeat Wei Ning and Pang Yi, the soldiers and horses of the two of them combined, it is enough to six or seven hundred thousand, if I don't expand the army, sooner or later I will be swallowed by him." ”

"That's... Your Majesty there.... ”

Ling Feng waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry, I will tell Your Majesty, besides, Your Majesty has already issued a holy decree, and the soldiers and horses of all counties and counties do not need to report to the imperial court, and recruit troops to guard the city on their own, we are now expanding the army, there is nothing wrong with it, and they can't say anything." ”

"Actually, I guess that with Your Majesty's intelligence, he should have thought that I would expand my army after I came, because before I came, I brought several times as many weapons and armor, how could he not know. Since His Majesty has not objected before, he will not object in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Wu's eyes lit up, he got up and walked over, and said, "General, how about I discuss something with you?" ”

"Say, as long as you don't lead troops to fight, I depend on you for everything." Ling Feng returned.

Zhang Wudao: "It's not a matter of leading troops to fight, besides, how can there be a war now, this Chu County has been captured." ”

Ling Feng asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Hehe, I want to be in charge of the troops, okay? My heart is not black, just give me 20,000 people, I must train well, I must be more elite than General Lu's soldiers and horses! ”

Ling Feng raised his eyebrows and pondered, as if he was considering.

Zhang Wu frowned, and then changed his words: "That one thousand fifteen!" ”

Ling Feng: "....." ”

Lu Chang was funny watching from the sidelines, in fact, he was quite sympathetic to Zhang Wu, obviously he had strength, and his martial arts were good, but because he was young, he didn't get a chance, alas...

Zhang Wu was slightly displeased, and said: "Of the 10,000 people, I want to be elite all of them, this is my bottom line!" ”

Ling Feng smiled and said, "You really want to lead the troops so much?" ”

"Of course!"

However, Ling Feng was a little worried, Zhang Wu was so young, only thirteen years old, although his martial arts were very high, but such a child, how could the soldiers be convinced.

After thinking about it for a long time, he finally said: "In this way, when the army is really expanded, I will allow you to choose 5,000 people, try it first, if you are competent, I will give you more soldiers and horses, if you are not competent, then I will also take back these 5,000 people, how about it?" ”

"Okay, hey, deal!"

Surprisingly, Zhang Wu agreed very happily.

Ling Feng and Lu Chang were also stunned.

Lu Chang smiled: "Aren't you too little? ”

Zhang Wu smiled happily: "No, no, in fact, what I was thinking about in my heart was this number, and more generals would not agree, so it was just right." Oops, finally in charge. With that, he went to the seat next to him and half-lay down.

Lu Chang said: "Good boy, there is yours." ”

Ling Feng smiled speechlessly.

The reason why he gave Zhang Wubing was that he really wanted to train Zhang Wu, five thousand people, even if it was a waste, Ling Feng wanted to open it. (To be continued.) )
